Student Safety as a Cornerstone of CIEE’s Programs
At CIEE, the well-being of our students is our top priority. We have a proven track record of ensuring safe and enriching international exchange experiences, with over 75+ years of expertise and thousands of students traveling with us safely each year.
Our dedicated Health, Safety and Security (HSS) team continuously evaluates and monitors risks in all our CIEE First Year Abroad (FYA) locations. Additionally, CIEE's on-site staff in international study centers have established relationships with community leaders and locals, fostering a safe environment for all participants.
